Lunar Ritual
Every year, when the conditions are right, a pilgrimage on your island occurs. No one speaks about it, but everyone does it. Every step is guided by the phases of the moon. Many will perish during the journey, but the ritual represents life itself. It must be done. May the moon be your guide...
Lunar Ritual was made as a submission for InkJam 2024 using Inky. Just a note when playing: I've seen that for some reason not all the playable options appear at the bottom of the screen for some reason? If you restart the game they do appear. For the next update I'll try to fix this and re-upload. If you know the fix for this already, your help in the comments will be much appreciated!
My goals for this was mostly to learn to use Inky and create a game with multiple endings (there are 7 possible endings for this story).
I will likely update the visuals for the game to make it all aesthetically coherent. For now, please forgive the stock image place-holders!

Wow, this was an interesting ritual - at first I found it hard to get in sync with it's rhythms but by the end I was happy to complete it successfully. Nice work!
